内容简介

Chapter I Mr. Sherlock Holmes Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he was up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before. It was a fine, thick piece of wood, bulbous-headed, of the sort which is known as a “Penang lawyer.” Just under the head was a broad silver band, nearly an inch across. “To James Mortimer, M.R.C.S., from his friends of the C.C.H.,” was engraved upon it, with the date “1884.” It was just such a stick as the old-fashioned family practitioner used to carry—dignified, solid, and reassuring. “Well, Watson, what do you make of it?” Holmes was sitting with his back to me, and I had given him no sign of my occupation. “How did you know what I was doing? I believe you have eyes in the back of your head.” “I have, at least, a well-polished, silver-plated coffee-pot in front of me,” said he. “But, tell me, Watson, what do you make of our visitor’s stick? Since we have been so unfortunate as to miss him and have no notion of his errand, this accidental souvenir becomes of importance. Let me hear you reconstruct the man by an examination of it.” 英国侦探小说鼻祖无人不晓的悬疑经典 历经百年，畅销不衰 英文原版，经典呈现 感受英语阅读的神韵，提升英语阅读能力 裸脊装帧，让读书体验再升级 《福尔摩斯探案全集》布局独具匠心，情节悬念迭起，叙事手法精妙独特， 语言凝练优美，是每一个推理迷必备的案头书籍。 《福尔摩斯探案全集之巴斯克维尔的猎犬》是阿瑟·柯南·道尔得意的中篇杰作之一，堪称福尔摩斯探案全集系列故事的代表作！ 1.和柯南？道尔所写的《福尔摩斯探案全集》相比，没有任何侦探小说曾享有那么高的声誉。 ——英国著名小说家 毛姆 英国皇家化学协会授予福尔摩斯荣誉院士的称号，表彰他在文学中对司法科学和分析化学的杰出运用。 ——英国皇家化学协会
